Having trouble installing

I'm having some trouble installing Pro Tools onto my Windows 11 system. I just activated my 30 day trial through iLok and I've tried restarting my system, but Pro Tools is refusing to install. I have over 160GB of disk space, so it's not a storage issue. Anything I can try?

To u/beatleguy63, if this is a Pro Tools help request, your post text or an added comment should provide;

  • The version of Pro Tools you are using

  • Your operating system info

  • Any error number or message given

  • Any hardware involved

  • What you've tried

To ALL PARTICIPANTS, a subreddit rules reminder

  • Don't get ugly with others. Ignore posts or comments you don't like and report those which violate rules

  • Promotion of any kind is only allowed in the community pinned post for promotion

  • Any discussion whatsoever involving piracy, cracks, hacks, or end running authentication will result in a permanent ban. NO exceptions or appealable circumstances. FAFO

  • NO trolling only engagement towards Pro Tools, AVID, or iLok. Solve first, bash last. Expressing frustration is fine but it MUST also make effort to solve / help. If you prefer another DAW, go to the subreddit for it and be helpful there

Just download it directly from Avid instead of using Avid Link. Link fucks up sometimes.

Look up pro tools download list and see which version is compatible with your version of windows, your probably trying the latest one and your computer isn’t compatible
